Brass Dog Bone Engraving
In 2010, the City of Cd'A, School District 271, and the Kootenai County
Dog Park Association opened the city's first off-leash dog park
at Northshire Park. The following year a second off-leash dog park
was opened at Cherry Hill Park. These parks were entirely funded by
area citizens and business, using no public money. You can now help
support this park by purchasing an engraved brass dog bone to be hung on the 'Paw-villion' at either park.
